Korean Big Convoy

Postby chuuzetsu » Sun Dec 27, 2009 8:55 pm

I just found a Korean version of Takara's "Big Convoy." It claims that it is made by Takara, and is imported to Korea. Does anyone know about this figure? Is it actually the same as this?

This is from sonokong (korea).... Takara gives them right for production.
I have this toy from sonokong, the toy quality is alright....
But i dont know why, those boxes are damage and old. So if you are crazy about condition about the box, beware!

If just for budget and the toy, it is a good choice.

I've been wanting a Big Convoy for quite a long time, so the price is an eye catcher. I'm not very concerned with the box for this one. I just think he looks amazing.

From what I've read online the quality on those is the same as the Takara so go for it. I got the black Nemises version of that mold and it is a really fun toy.

If I'm planning on opening it, I try very hard to get a Sonkong version instead of Takara. It's the identical figure, just in a less attractive (and often damaged?) box, for usually half the price.

Korean Big Convoy is the same quality as the Takara version. He's still one of my favorites. You guys having damaged Sonokong boxes, maybe it's because they're old stock or something. Mine have all been fairly mint.

I have that same Big Convoy, from the same seller it seems. Go for it, I was not disappointed.

I've had mine for a few years, if I recall (because I haven't had him out for a while) one of the arms tends to pop off a bit but it's not a major issue. But quality wise? Yeah, top notch, you can't go wrong with it!

I have the Takara version and handled the Sonokong version. The difference? Well maybe the hue of the blue part of Convoy's helmet. As for wanting a mint box version(Sonokong that is) well pm me and I'll give you guys the online source(I have a source that never fails)
